thank you for the stream!
This was quite fun - I weirdly enjoyed turning a town of innocent villagers into my undead minions. The low poly aesthetics are quite nice and the animation was great. The gameplay was simple and enjoyable. The web version got a bit too heavy on my browser unfortunately as I amassed more and more minions.
Great job!
Haha the game was definitely dark. Thanks for playing. Yeah the frame lag is a definite improvement I need to make.
This game has a cool concept and looks great!
The 3d models and whole artstyle looks pretty good, I especially like how the hand is animated.
The game felt a little buggy, like minions not attacking villagers sometimes, villagers acting weird, or just being a little clunky in general. I also wish the game was a bit more difficult, got like 10 minutes in and still didn't feel a huge sense of challenge or even many villagers spawning.
Overall though, the game was pretty fun and looked great, so good job!
Yeah "clunky" is definitely a good word for it - Needs a lot of improvement. Thanks for the kind words!
I love minion master games! There's something so satisfying with having your own army. I liked how in order you make more skeletons you had to drain the villager's life, so you had to do some attacking to summon and you don't just sit around letting your minions do everything. Though I did run into lag when I did so. It seems to mainly happen when the skeletons try to go to a villager to attack it. Hopefully that helps find the bug.
Thanks for the kind words! Definitely noticed the lag too, I'll have to work that one!
Interesting attempt on the rebirth theme, really liked gameplay of your game! Artwork is really nice and music is right on the spot :D
Thank you!
Cool game. I like the intro story and that control-hints are directly integrated into the gameplay. Also I'm a a fan of low poly :-).
The skelettons could need an idle animation and sometimes the rotation was messed up. Also some groups of skeletons were stuck. But I could "solve" that problem by not spawning eny more minions there so that the villagers can kill them.
Overall a pretty nice game which is really fun to play :-)
I'm a big low poly person! Thanks for calling that out! Thank you for playing :)
It's really nice! After a while the game lags thoough. Overall a really good game!
Thank you for the kind words. Yeah, there's a lot of frame lag after a while, especially on browser.
The character sprites in the game are adorable X>! The banger music was awesome to listen too throughout the game. The mechanics were fun and I would love to see an updated version soon. :]
Thank you! Me too :)
Game is super fun, mechanics are great. The villagers didn't stand a chance.
Fun idea, would love to see it expanded on more!
thank you! I hope to work on it again.
